READYMIX DIGITALIZATION

Should everyone need to know 0-1 miracle for digitilazition?

– Many readymix suppliers struggle to differentiate themselves in the market. Many experience that their clients start buying from another supplier from one day to the next. Even if the concrete product is of excellent quality and you deliver the concrete on time, this might not be enough to retain a customer in the long term.

– Nowadays there is one inevitable solution, digitalization!

  • The adoption of internet of things (IoT) technology to increase productivity.
  • The power of IoT to ensure readymix meets quality and specification requirements when it is gets to the jobsite.
  • While focused on reducing waste in operations, the digital technology is the unique solution.
  • A slump indicator on the mixer trucks displays slump and temperature, enabling operators or even the customer to verify the concrete meets its specification.
  • Smart sensor technology monitors and helps to manage properties ranging from slump, temperature, volume, water added and location/status of the mixer truck.
  • Embedded sensors for quality assurance and legality.
  • The industry is focused on environmental improvement with digital technology  for example capturing CO2.
  • GPR technology bring safe and efficient operation of mixer trucks.
  • Digital technology also closes the communication gap with project stakeholders by sending notifications when a load is leaving the site, when it is ready for discharge, how much water was added, and other data points, etc.

– But there is a question, ‘are there some people preventing digitalization within the company? Is the older generation really afraid of losing their jobs?’

-Actually, there is nothing to be worried about that. Everyone is already going digital in some way, mostly by osmosis.

– For example, if a mixer driver gets a paperless approval for the delivery ticket at the site, should we consider he knows all about the 0-1 concepts?

-Which generations are working together in the readymixed industry? Today, more than half of the workforce in the world consists of Generation X. This group was born into the digital world.

– On the other hand, the Mors alphabet have similar codes which consists of only two things a dot and a dash. All the letters consist of inputs available or not in other words 1 or 0. People have used this Morse alphabet more than century. Unrestful generation, Baby Boomers should had received a telegram during their childhood.

– Now the main question is where should we start digitalization? Gradually or using direct technologies? In order to reduce employees’ fears and concerns, shouldn’t it be necessary to first create a cultural infrastructure?

-You will find all of above in this eBook which consists of following chapters; readymix concrete, industry 4.0 and rmc, innovation in rmc technology, smart sensors, concrete sensors, drum sensors, digital logistic, digital qc, robots in rmc, digital culture and transformation.

-You can also get some important datas regarding the concrete by means of smart sensors on the drum. This allows the dispatcher to monitor concrete in real time.

Ability to monitor:

Slump

Temperature

Air %

M3 concrete in drum

Revolutions of drum

Water additions, etc.

-Time and efficiency are paramount when it comes to the readymix industry. The tracking systems simplify invoicing from pouring data, reduce operational costs and increase fleet efficiency monitoring agitator drum rotations and water usage and enhancing route optimisation. You can also benefit from increased operational efficiency and productivity as well as enhanced mixer truck utilisation.

This eBook consists of following chapters; truck tracking systems, how does it work, system configurations, smart drum sensors, what is telematics, telematics and logistic, telematics for management, telematics in the future and modern fleet management.

READYMIX DIGITAL OPERATION


What happened after Bill Gates?

We all know who wrote the first programs for ready-mixed concrete many years ago. But what happened afterwards, how is digital technology used in ready-mixed concrete operations today, how are these systems implemented in the world, are they widespread enough?

Let’s move on to our first question. Which companies still work with the slogan ‘quantity over quality’ and which ones give up this ‘black order – kara düzen’ and increase their sustainability and profitability with ‘quality’.

First of all, check with the following questions which digital applications are used in your company in order to determine the position. If there is no initiative yet, remember that the idea of ‘we will catch up later’ is not valid in the digital world. Because there are huge developments in a very short time. If you don’t have any preliminary preparation, there is no chance of intervening!

Questions:
1.Is it possible for the ready-mixed concrete industry to digitalize from order to delivery?
2.What is the first field which digitalization was achieved so far?
3. What is working out of tolerance? How can Industry 4.0 be a solution to this?
4.How can optimization in concrete mixtures be done with IoT and M2M?
5.What is the man-hour value for M3 concrete in concrete production and how much can this be reduced with digitalization?
6.Is inventory management an engineering subject or a commercial transaction?
7.What would be the contribution of Industry 4.0?
8. What are the expectations from Industry 4.0 for supply chain?
9.What does the concept of ‘distance in time’?
10. How can quality control be done with the Internet of Things?
11. What could be the advantages of IIoT in logistics?

READYMIX OPERATING GREEN PLANT

 

Green concrete is produced in green batch plant!

Green concrete refers to concrete that has been designed to minimise the negative effects it has on the environment. Currently, concrete is responsible for approximately 5% of all the world’s carbon emissions.

Everything is going green, that’s now the trend of modern life. Concrete plants also benefit from this. Green batching plants are undoubtedly favorable choice in order to save material and energy. But how can we operate a green concrete batching plant?

It is not enough to just set the rules for concrete production, the concrete machinery and equipment manufacturers (batch plant, truckmixers, concrete pumps etc…) also need to take part in this trend and transform their production and products into green..

Green concrete batching plants, first of all, must comply with environmental protection requirements. Therefore companies manufacturing concrete batch plant should take all reasonable and practical measures to prevent or minimise environmental harm and nuisance.

There is also important duty for the readymix managers, responsible persons such as foremen and dispatchers as well as drivers and operators, for thinking and acting green in every process of concrete production and delivery.

Concrete is the main stay of construction industry. Concrete underpins the economic prosperity and continued growth. While concrete can be durable and sustainable, its production, if managed poorly, can damage environment and communities.

This eBook is for operating a green concrete batching plant.
Each section of this study addresses a separate aspect of the green concrete production process, from handling cement to batching and dealing with waste also delivery.

Readymix companies using this guidebook can be confident they are doing what is required to protect the environment and also prevent environmental incidents.
